What If (Hardcover)

Customer Review

A tip in advance: Who knows xkcd and therefore interested in the book, it should definitely buy the original, because such a short test showed lost a lot of originality in the translation. Who does not know xkcd or bad English, in order to read an entire book, which can have recourse to the emergency on the German book. But anyone who appreciates the originality and the jet-black humor of Randall Munroe especially, should ... I said already.

What If is really just a number, blog entries, and some new questions, but always remain in style by xkcd. I therefore recommend nevertheless to only deal before buying the blog to find out whether the sometimes very bizarre questions, the oblique humor and the style of Munor to fit. Personally, I find very amusing book and blog and informative, but the answers to many questions does not know you. They are more of entertainment at a higher, not always scientific, level and clarifying discussions, not everyone stumbles on in his daily life or with his friends. But even the most bizarre questions received (some) scientific answers, whether. By a reference to studies or Munroe's own calculations and considerations It's quite fun to join the mind games.

Conclusion: A book for a specific audience, just the xkcd fans, but I really put reading his heart. Five Stars.
